[edk2] [PATCH v1 0/2] NetworkPkg/iScsiDxe: Update iScsiStart Policy

Posted by hegdenag 7 years, 8 months ago

Today, iSCSI driver checks whether there are AIP instances
installed by iSCSI HBA adapter and if yes, the iSCSI driver
will return EFI_ABORTED in its driver binding Start. 
We can not guarantee the existence of AIP instances always during
iSCSI DBStart. Hence, we might end up doing a iScsiStart even if
the intent of the customer was to use only iSCSI on HBA.
The series of patch will define a new PCD value for the PCD 
PcdIScsiAIPNetworkBootPolicy, "Always use iSCSI HBA and ignore
UEFI iSCSI", update iScsiStart to check this PCD value and return
EFI_ABORT in this case even before checking for AIP instances.
